                       This is an optional, user-provided file. If it exists,
                       the builder's /etc/make.conf will be appended with the
                       contents of this file. For the default profile, the
                       file would normally be located at
                       /usr/local/etc/synth/LiveSystem-make.conf

Thanks for the tip.

I already have read the man page because I git-cloned synth tree from github 
repository.

I want to keep the Ada code for viewing, among other things.

My first attempt to build synth was on FreeBSD-current amd64 and failed when 
the system rebooted itself when I was sleeping.  Apparently no filesystem 
damage.

System came up in System Rescue CD 5.0.0 USB-stick installation.

I attribute this to FreeBSD-current instability rather than synth or ports, 
meaning I must first rebuild FreeBSD 11.0-STABLE amd64 installation, and then 
from there, FreeBSD-current amd64.
